How to Remember to do Something Urgent

We are so busy and have so many distractions that it's easy to forget to do the one thing that was urgent. Here's a great tip to avoid this:-

Put a ring on a different finger or change your watch to the other wrist and leave it there until the task is done!

Use Reverse Thinking to Get to the Gym more Often!

You will most benefit from going to the Gym when you least feel like going, but how you get yourself to go? It is also difficult persuading yourself when your fitness has gone backwards after an illness or a calorific Xmas. In all these cases you can usefully apply a bit of psychology; promise yourself you will take it easy when you get there, or just go to the pool and sauna. After all if you associate the Gym with punishment you will sooner or later give it up!

So where does the reverse thinking come in, well I no longer go to the sports center for my physical fitness, rather I go there for my mental health because I know afterwards I will feel great, this is because the Gym is one place where everything you do is for you, where they cannot phone you or hassle you. That's precious calming time in a nice environment and heck you get the physical fitness for free.

Try thinking this way and you'll find yourself going to the gym more often!

The Secret of Affirmations

To Quote Wikipedia :
Affirmation can be viewed positively as a mobilization of one's inner resources. For example, believers would consider "I Am making more room in my life for success every day" a much wiser affirmation than "I am successful !"

Affirmations are always phrased in the first person and usually in a present tense ("I Am") rather than a future tense ("I will") in order to increase the realization of the statement for the affirmation.
Affirmations are believed to be a very powerful means of reprogramming the subjective mind. They appear to be most effective when repeated in a quiet and restful state of mind and body, and when the desired outcome is vividly experienced in one's mind and resulting emotions are felt.
